Processes of concentration in the Polish food industry
Abstract
An important feature of development of food industry in the last years is a
growing share of production in big industrial plants. It happens so mainly, because
of the concentrations processes that have place in the food industry. The
biggest concentrations have been taking place in meat, milk and cereals processing
industry. A major role in this industry plays transnational corporations which
take control over the Polish firms. Acquisitions by foreign investors have had
various influences on the overtaken firms. Research results indicate that decreasing
profitability and net income per employee was an effect of acquisitions in the
majority of the overtaken firms. It shows that western investors have had other
priorities than increase of profitability and efficiency of operations.
